THE QUEBEC CONFERENCE.
Attorney General Martin—Tifflrltifin'Co}
lumbla Arrives With a Memorlu'.
Quebec,Sept. 30.—The Hon.
lumbia, arrived here yesterday. He
beers with him for presentation to the
Canadian commissioners a. memorial
dealing with the Behring sea and. Alas-
ka boundary questions, as well as other
issues, including commercial reciproc~
ity and reciprocity in towing and wrec»
king.
The memorial expresses the views of
the British Columbia. government. That
government is unwilling that Canada
should cede her rights to pelagic seal—
ing for a. monetary compensation to
the Canadian sealers.
Mr. Martin is confident that no dif-
flcult‘y‘will be found in settling the
Alaska boundary dispute. His idea is
that the American interpretation put
on the treaty defining the boundary
should be strenuously resisted. He pro-
tested strongly against What he called
the large and expensive methods adop-
ted by American customs ofiicers in
enfarcing the boundary regulations at
Skagway and other gateways to the
Yukon.
The memorial he brings favors a with
measure of reciprocity between the two
countries. It also seeks an interna-v
tional arrangement for the protection
of fish from wholesale slaughter. Mr
Martin will seek the abolition of the
United States duty on ores containing
lead. He says the question is one in-
volving the very future of the mining
never advocated the extinguishmem
of the rights of British subjects to en-
gage in‘ pelagic sea-ling as a basis for
the settlement of the dispute.
The sealers do not seek to influence
the“ commissioners, he says. They
would be satisfied with a just settle-
ment. If compensation, as has been
suggested, were offered, his fellow seal-
ers would be prepared to sell out of
9. business fast becoming unremunera-
tive.
PEACE COMMISSIONS MEET.
No Business Will Do Transacted 'l'lll Gen.
Merritt Benches Paris.
Paris, Sept. 30.—Thc American and
Spanish peace commissioners met for
the first time at noon yesterday. The
meeting, which was purely of a social
character, took place at the residence
of M. Delcasse, minister of foreign af-
fairs, who introduced the commission-
ers to one another after which lunch-
eon was served. ’
There will be no official meeting of
the joint commission until Saturday.
The American commissioners held a
conference yesterday morning and road
and discussed some documents. The
commissioners will hold daily sessions.
Saturday’s meeting will be merely for-
mal, and“no business will be actually
undertaken until after thte American
commissioners have had a. consulti-

Nehru-In"- «Big Wheat Crop.
Omaha, Neb., Sept. 30.—What to do
with Nebraska’s big wheat crop was
the subject of discussion at the meet-.-
ing of the State Millers' Association
yesterday afternoon. The‘sessibn was
held with D. M. Dean of Seward, press
ident of the Millers’ Association, in the:
chair. . . .
Many matters relating to the inter-
ests of millers were discussed, but the
one about which all present had some;
thing to say, was the wheat crop.
It was determined to form a. state
organization to grind all surplus wheat
into flour and keep up the price of that
commodity.
To Quoll an Indian Outbreak.
,St. Paul, Minn., Sept. 30.—A detach-
ment of the Third infantry, in com—
mand of Lieutenant G. B. Humphrey,
will leave Fort Snelling to-day for the
scene of the Indian disrurbances in the
Leech lake country.
The disturbances began when a Uni-
ted States marshal arre-sted two of the
Indians, and the others came. to their
rescue and took them from the mar-
shal and his posse by force.
They then declared to the authorities
that they would make laws of their
own and would refuse to obey the laws
of the United States.

Sizing U0 Papa.
The'heir and hope of the family at
Blank-Castle was a little rogue of
about five summers. One day at
lunch he was very disobedient.‘ His
father, whose ortfirs had been repeat-
edly ignored, at last struck the table
to accentuate his parental authority,
and said, indignantly: “William, you
forget Who I am!” 4
The velvet-eyed scamp looked up,
and/with subtle simplicityw said:
“Oh, no! You’re only muvver’s hus-
band;” and the hereditary legislator
remained speechless amid the deri-
sive laughter of his guests—London
Telegraph.
His First Indignation.
They were evidently on their wed-
ding tour. While in the sights they
wandered into the Art Museum, and
pausing before a reproduction of the
Venus of Milo, the bride remarked-—
“They must think people who come
here are awfully ignorant."
“Why so, dearie?” asked the‘other
half.
“Why so!” she exclaimed, with an
air of superior intelligence; “get on to
that sign. ‘Hauds off!’ hanging on
that thing; just as if any fool didn’t
know they were.” '
Setting Up For Himself.
Jamie Spence, a well known charac-
ter, was one day driving cattle
bolted into a butcher’s shop and ran
off with a leg of mutton, whereupon
the butcher issued forth and collared
Jamie, demanding if that was his
dog.
“New,” replied Jamie, slyly eyeing
the erring quadruped, “he was mine
once, but he seems to be doing for
hissel’ now.”—Spare Moments.
What flinging Signifles.
H-issing means different things, ac-
cording to where you happen to be at
the time. In West Africa the natives
hiss when they are astonished; in the
New Hebrides when they see anything
beautiful. The Basutos applaud a
popular orator in the assemblies by
hissing at him. The Japanese, again,
show their reverence by‘a hiss, which
has probably somewhat the force of
the “hush” with which we command
silence—New York erald.
Dainty 'Dreu Trimmings.
This season there has been an un-

ton and linen braids and fancy glmps
for trimming chambrays, zephyrs,

etc. Especially useful are the flat-
threaded gimps overlaid with slightly
' raised woven flower devices in white
